Slot and system manufacturer Konami Gaming announced the successful European debut of its extra-large Podium Goliath video slot machine cabinet with prominent installations in France and Belgium.
Featuring dual 32-inch LCD touchscreens and unique 360-degree attract lighting effects, Goliath entered Europe’s gaming market for the first time via exclusive Konami distributors CARO Développement and DRGT in casino locations in France and Belgium, respectively.
“Podium Goliath has the best of both worlds—the huge cabinet draws people in,” said Camille Continelli, general manager of Belgium’s Casino Dinant. “Konami is an excellent addition to our casino and very popular among our guests. Our customers comment how much they enjoy playing on the Konami slots.”
“The reaction from customers has been overwhelmingly positive and performance looks very promising,” said DRGT’s Joost van Egeraat after Goliath’s reception at the Belgian casino. “Konami is very popular at Casino Dinant, and now the addition of this big Goliath machine has given the casino added impetus and indeed added buzz.”
Christian Pycke, manager at Tranchant Group’s Casino de Villers-sur-Mer along France’s northern coast, commented, “We chose Goliath because its extra-large design certainly grabs visitors’ attention. We’re captivated by Konami slot machines—the quality of the equipment design, the library of games available, and the sheer attraction of these products have achieved acclaim from our customers.”
